The Clarity Act reveals the truth: Banks don’t want Americans to earn interest. But you can. This is how.
Your Bank Is Becoming A Casino: River CEO Frames Bitcoin As The Alternative zerohedge.com/crypto/your-ba…
Some new businesses onboarded to @River in the last week: - Agriculture business - Car wash - Electronics repair - Insurance broker - Church - Healthcare services - Concierge - Family trust 99% of Bitcoin treasury companies are on Main Street 🚀
Officially deleted my bank account of two decades and now do direct deposit and all bill pay through @River.
Bitcoiners have waited years to ditch their bank. Now you finally can.
Every Bitcoin exchange should have Public Financials and Proof of Reserves. We’re publishing @River’s 2025 financials to further our mission of building the world’s most trusted financial institution. We will continue to publish our financials annually.
No one would trust a bank with a roulette table in the lobby. Coinbase and Robinhood are betting you won't notice.
This Wednesday @benepling from @River joins the Midland Bitcoin Meetup to talk Bitcoin adoption metrics. If you wonder how many people actually use Bitcoin, how fast that number is growing, and what it means for the next few years, this is the presentation to catch. Ben is bringing the real data they see. Thank you to our sponsors @GigaEnergy_ and @NobleMinerCo for making these events happen.
The Midland Bitcoin Meetup is April 1st at 6:15 PM. Ben Epling (@benepling) from @River is joining us to give us an inside look at Bitcoin adoption data • how fast it's growing • who's using it • what the metrics actually show.
Most people spent February watching the price drop. River was having their highest volume month ever. Ben Epling from River joined us to walk through the ownership shift data, what is driving business adoption, and how River is building the infrastructure for a dual currency era with direct deposit and bill pay. If you want to learn more about how to incorporate Bitcoin into your services as a financial advisor, tune in to the Bitcoin for Financial Services Podcast with myself and @jordanguess today. 👇
We published an article this week that I think is worth your time if you work in financial services or advise business owners. Ben Epling from River joined us on BFFS this past Wednesday and shared some data points I had not seen publicly before. Highest volume month ever in February. Institutions quietly accumulating while individuals sold. 63% of businesses on River planning to hold indefinitely. We turned the whole conversation into a full write up on Substack. Subscribe to the substack and watch the new pod episode 👇 bffsmedia.substack.com/publish/post/1…
We sat down with @benepling from River and asked what drives business Bitcoin adoption. Turns out it almost always starts the same way... a personal Bitcoiner who owns a business and wants Bitcoin on the balance sheet too. 97% of River business accounts have just 1–5 decision makers. The barrier is lower than you think. Full episode 👇 youtu.be/YNnWZGNegsE?si…
We sat down with Ben Epling from River and the data speaks for itself. 63% of businesses on River plan to hold their Bitcoin indefinitely. These aren't traders. They're not timing the market. They're building long term balance sheets in Bitcoin and they're not looking back. Catch the full episode on the Bitcoin for Financial Services Podcast... co-hosted by myself and @jordanguess link below 👇 youtu.be/YNnWZGNegsE?si…
When sentiment hit the floor in February, most assumed adoption was slowing. The data tells a completely different story. While individuals were net sellers, institutions, businesses, and governments were quietly accumulating. River posted their highest volume month ever. 63% of businesses on River plan to hold Bitcoin indefinitely. The shift isn't coming… it's already happening. Tune in to the latest episode of The Bitcoin for Financial Services Podcast with myself and @jordanguess featuring @benepling from @River today.
While everyone was panicking about Bitcoin's price in February, River had their highest volume month ever. 25,000+ BTC in cold storage. 7.7 BTC earned in interest. Adoption accelerating across businesses and individuals. The fundamentals have never been better. Full episode with Ben Epling from River linked below 👇
December has been our highest volume month ever at @River 🚀 As more apps try to lure you into speculation and financialization, we are focused on building the world's most trusted financial institution to empower you to grow your wealth.
